  • 🔗 SerenityOS

    SerenityOS is a love letter to ’90s user interfaces. Andreas Kling demos some of the best aspects of his new operating system.
    Maybe it's just nostalgia, but SerenityOS looks great. As the big OSes integrate into opaque web services, the mental model of your PC has become too complex. In many ways it feels like usability is getting worse. SerenityOS is such a breath of fresh air.
  • 🔗 Biking Boom - Cycling as Lifestyle

    Discover contemporary cycling culture in three European cities: Berlin, the unofficial capital of vintage racing bikes. London, where cycle-cafés also hold speed dating evenings and Amsterdam where cyclists stand out from the crowd with style.
    A great documentary series about cycling from 2018. With interviews and footage with bike couriers in Berlin, cycle fashion bloggers in Copenhagen, it inspired me to take out my cross-bike instead of the eBike mama-chari for the first time in ages. I wish I had a reason to ride it more.

    I love the sub-culture around bikes. Not the lycra wearing weekend racers, but the everyday riders. Riding for transport. Or  work. Or whatever. Each bike as unique as its owner. And each ride in the city, a small protest against the car dominance that is killing us all.

    I miss when the internet was full of travel blogs like this. Random photos of everyday things. Not super-polished or photoshopped to death. Just people doing their thing and letting others follow along.

    The original travelogue is a fun read. 
  • 🔗 Paged Out!

    Paged Out! is a free experimental (one article == one page) technical magazine about programming (especially programming tricks!), hacking, security hacking, retro computers, modern computers, electronics, demoscene, and other similar topics.
    What a cool zine. Reminds me of high school when we'd make these kinds of things around C/assembly, hacking, and programming in general (but not as professional looking as this).
  • 🔗 Running on my own

    Since I started my IndieWeb journey this month I’ve been thinking a lot about the digital content I’m producing and how I can be more in control of my data, avoiding data silos as much as possible.
    Another one of my motivation for building Tanzawa was wanting to have a place to store all of my running data and visualize it. Super interesting post and maybe some motivation for me to (finally) take control of my running data.
